Industry Background:
Glass fiber, a material that contain many extremely fine fibers of glass. These are thin strands of silica based or other glass which is extruded into fibers that can be further processed on the basis of applications. The material has superior properties like flexibility, high tensile strength, light weight, sound absorption, durability, thermal conductivity as well as electrical conductivity among others. It is extremely useful in reinforcement & insulation application. The products properties along with low cost make it a dynamic reinforcement material in the plastics industry. In the construction industry, glass fiber is used to manufacture components like roofing laminate, facade panels, and various other building components. Increasing demand of fiberglass composites in automotive industry is likely to impel the growth of global glass fiber market over the near future.
This growth is primarily driven by Growing Usage of Glass Fiber in Construction Industry, Rising Demand in Alternative Energy Sector and Increasing Demand of Fiberglass Composites in Automotive Industry.
Globally, a noticeable market trend is evident Cost Optimization & Performance Improvement of Glass Fiber. The Specialty Chemicals sector in the Europe region has been increasing at a sustainable rate and further growth is expected to be witnessed over the forecast period, owing to the robust investments and expansion in production facilities in the region. Major Vendors, such as BGF Industries, Inc. (United States), Agy Aiken LLC (United States), Johns Manville (United States), Nitto Boseki Co., Ltd. (Japan), Jushi Group (China), Chomarat Group (France), AGC Inc. (Japan), Owens Corning (United States), Saint-Gobain (France) and Nippon Electric Glass Co., Ltd. (Japan) etc have either set up their manufacturing facilities or are planning to start new provision in the dominated region in the upcoming years.
Regulatory Insights:
Government regulations, like The Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFÉ) Standards in the United States and carbon emission targets in Europe, are putting pressure on OEMs to include lightweight materials to control the overall vehicle weight, & so this is impacting demand for the glass fiber in the transportation industry.
